No problem. I understand it's a lot of work.

Nice to see you resuming work on this. I'll be interested to see V3 when it's officially released.

Any plans for a richedit control (or something of similar functionality) ?

It's been about a year and I've been playing with this library on and off as my time allows, and I was wondering if anyone could solve a problem for me. There appears to be an outstanding bug with the library where it does not properly pass information to the system to initiate fullscreen mode, prog...

yes it does work, and I appreciate that.

But now I have about 300 random questions

That was kind of the point of this exercise. I went into it knowing I did not understand much of what I was doing. But that's how I learn. I do not learn from reading books or documentation , I only learn small bits and am unable to retain most of that knowledge. I have to brute force it into my bra...

Gotta start somewhere.. Or would you prefer I just show up and demand the answer without trying

print_ext and print_ext2 both return 0 So I'm guessing it has to do with this stuff, as quoted above in my original post dimensions_t terminal_print(int x, int y, const char* s); // + printf, wprint and wprintf flavours dimensions_t terminal_print_ext(int x, int y, int width, int height, int align, ...

Thanks for the response Kenmo. Its probably a fair point of me confusing String vs Character. Termput works as intended, and as I figured it did (first character of a string only) The other more complex command.... Your code runs into the same problem I have, mainly when I try to run it, invalid mem...

For reference you can find the relevant library, its documentation and source code via https://github.com/cfyzium/bearlibterminal As everyone probably knows, when it comes to accessing external libraries where pointers and such start getting involved. I completely fall on my face. Despite anything I...

Thanks guys. Demivec: I did try reading the docs, and I just did not understand the way it was worded. Yes it tells you to prepend $ and it shows an example of a simple hex as we would write it, however without a reference "before" sample stupid people like me get easily confused. As has b...

ok. That works.


Wish that was explained a little better in the documentation.

so basically I should ignore anything 0x whenver I see it in the wild ?

I'm recently retired and have started another spat of boredom where I attempt to mess with programming. I became interested in BearLibTerminal https://github.com/cfyzium/bearlibterminal I started to just write a small wrapper to get it up and going and make sure I knew what I was doing, and part of ...

From what i understood - the licensing can get a little bit difficult if you start as open source and later switch the project to commercial. But otherwise it seems possible to use QT for my hobby projects and for commercial projects too. I will have a look into using the latest QT version with Pur...

Hi Everything, after a quick look into the QT licenses I can say that unfortunately it is not that easy to use the qt-libraries. What technical advantages there are through the qt libraries I can not estimate. I'd consider a consistent / native look across all platforms, and a plethora of useful co...
